Any reason you don't root? Just rooted and installed CM10.1 on my Verizon Galaxy S3 the other day and it's night and day difference. So much better than the crap they'd be pushing anyway.
- gtaylor 13y agoI have before, but I shouldn't have to. CM can be pretty janky at times, particularly with the GPS. If I'm shelling out this much for a "flagship device", I shouldn't have to flash a custom ROM to stay up to date. I just want it to work and expect to get my updates like a Nexus device does.
- methodin 13y agoWell GPS was always shitty on mine, as well was wifi stopped working (on stock software) so I had nothing to lose. No issues with it yet.
- abrahamsen 13y agoApparently the Galaxy S3 is notorious for GPS issues, and those issues have an easy fix: Tighten the screws on the back. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2201668 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2201668
- wonderyak 13y agoThe updates to Android in 4.1+ have made the GNex slower and less able to function as a proper device. I've rooted and installed a few different ROMs, but there is never a fix for crap hardware and limited RAM. The NAND seems to be a real source of problems as well.
